 "Doctor Who: The Mind of Evil" is a six-part serial 
 from the Jon Pertwee era, originally broadcast in 1971. 
 Here's a review primarily based on the script provided on chakoteya.net: 
  
 Episode 1: The Doctor and Jo attend a demonstration of the Keller Machine, 
 a device claimed to remove violent impulses from criminals. However, 
 the machine's true nature is revealed when it causes death and destruction. 
 The episode effectively sets up the premise 
 and introduces the main characters, including the Doctor's nemesis, 
 the Master. The tension builds as the true threat of the Keller Machine 
 becomes apparent. Rating: 8/10 
  
 Episode 2: The Doctor investigates the origins of the Keller Machine 
 while UNIT deals with the aftermath of its use. The Master's involvement 
 deepens the mystery, and the action sequences are engaging. The stakes 
 feel higher as the Doctor realizes the machine's potential 
 for mass destruction. Rating: 8/10 
  
 Episode 3: The Doctor races against time to stop the Master's plan 
 involving the Keller Machine and a nerve gas missile. The character 
 dynamics are well-developed, and the moral dilemmas faced 
 by the characters add complexity to the story. The suspense continues 
 to build as the Doctor gets closer to uncovering the truth. Rating: 8/10 
  
 Episode 4: The Doctor confronts the Master and tries to prevent 
 the missile launch. The action sequences are intense, and the resolution 
 is satisfying. However, some may find the pacing slightly slow 
 in this episode. Rating: 7/10 
  
 Episode 5: The Doctor and UNIT attempt to defuse the nerve gas missile 
 before it detonates. The tension mounts as they face various obstacles, 
 including the Master's interference. The emotional stakes are high, 
 and the climax of the story is thrilling. Rating: 8/10 
  
 Episode 6: The Doctor's efforts to stop the missile reach a dramatic 
 conclusion. The resolution is both satisfying and thought-provoking, 
 as the Doctor reflects on the nature of evil. The episode sets up 
 future conflicts between the Doctor and the Master, 
 hinting at the ongoing struggle between them. Rating: 8/10 
  
 Overall, "The Mind of Evil" is a compelling Doctor Who serial 
 that explores themes of morality, power, and the nature of evil. 
 Jon Pertwee delivers a strong performance as the Doctor, 
 and the dynamic between him and Jo Grant adds depth to the narrative. 
 While some episodes suffer from pacing issues, the overall experience 
 is enjoyable and thought-provoking. Overall Rating: 7.8/10
